Using the RackN Digital Rebar Platform, record a "baseline" configuration of hardware inventory information. Subsequently compare the server Machines current state against the Baseline state. Provide examples of recording this state in an external service that is supported with a RESTful API.
The differences shown are for BOM/SKU configuration of the hardware, along with the machines BIOS configuration values.
